Except it will prevent you from mutating many of its system files. I mean it’s not a good argument for a former Windows user, unless they get a sudden urge to tinker with all possible system files on Linux (which is possible to do on immutable systems in one way or another, but it’s much harder and not as straightforward)

By consent of others, whoever registered there will be forced to that outcome even if they disagree. I fail to see how that’s a good thing

Ah, my friend happens to have the exact same mouse. Unfortunately, we tested it, and apparently the wireless dongle it’s using already polls at 1000 Hz aka bInterval 1 (probably the dongle was made with wider mouse model support range in mind), so unfortunately we weren’t able to overclock it at all with this method… :( (we only did his Sony DualSense controller) Well, that’s unless you’d happen to have a different revision or something where that maybe wouldn’t apply? Also I see it has USB-C plus and I’m embarrassed to admit we didn’t try that, so who knows xD

He saw how 1000 Hz feels on my machine and said he wants to replace his mouse ever since, since that smoothness feeling has stuck in his mind ever since lol

Lower effective input latency, higher input smoothness (the latter perceivable probably only on displays with higher refresh rates). That’s of course only for USB input devices (gamepads, mice, maybe keyboard), as for other types of devices idk.

But do note that only some devices will allow you to do this. For gamepads, the site gamepadla.com has a bunch of OC results made by Windows gamers. For mice, I saw some threads on some forums at some point (my mouse is natively 1000 Hz, so I didn’t focus on this)

EDIT: But like the difference can be really perceivable, it’s not a placebo. Especially on something like 240 Hz screen, the difference between say 125 Hz and 1000 Hz polling is just jarring. But it’s rare a 125 Hz mouse could be brought up this much, usually its sensor wouldn’t even be precise enough if it was shipped at such low polling.

But for example my controller could be overclocked from 250 to 1000, but 500 was the sweet spot in how it felt, while at 1000 it was unstable with some lags from time to time. But 500 was working perfectly and felt smoother.

Also notably the PS5’s DualSense can be overclocked from 250 to 1000 Hz (people claim 8000, but apparently it’s actually a lie)

Unfortunately the combined forces of US and Russian propaganda machines try very hard to ruin it for us, and they see some success in depleting EU membership support in polls and various political unrests

My laptop had UEFI update that fixed the key-up thing and mentioned it allows holding the key in the changelog. So make sure to check for updates if you care

Super Tux Kart is very underrated, super fun game actually

Well funnily enough it was already broken even in Windows 10 half of the time, was pretty infuriating. But with Windows 11 they’ve outdone themselves
